Polargraph drawing bot

FIRST OF ALL THIS PROJECT IS ARDUINO BASED AND THE CHALLANGE IS TO NOT USE A ARDUINO

I have an awesome idea, i follow elektronics in high school now and i 'm working on my integrated test and normaly you need one year (more 7 months) for making something but i have build it in 1 moth and code only took me 2days.

I 'm making a polargraph "robot" and i think it is a great project for on your channel. I

have a video of the first drawing on my channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoColEY3kdA

And all the info i got come from this site http://www.hackerspace-ffm.de/wiki/index.php?title=Drawbot@MfK#HPGL_Dateien_.28aus_SVG_konvertiert.29

And i know you can just use an arduino but i'm using an pic16F887 with 2 A4988 stepper drivers.

So maybe you can try it also with a PIC microcontroller or AVR but NO ARDUINO that's to easy

How about a Raspberry Pi or BeagleBone Black?

No raspberry pi because if you really want a challange you will use a pic microcontroller.
And i think it's normal to use a microcontroller than a microprocessor but you can try
But i recomend a pic microcontroller or avr microcontroller

What if we use 32 bit ARM Cortex-M4 processor found on a Teensy 3.2?

Ok you can use it but it is also a challange to do it with a 8bit microcontroller because he need to work with 32bit based numbers and trust me if you can do it with an 8bit based controller you can also do it with an 32bit controller.
But you can try it
